Regardless of how far away you are, regardless of the topic of this
mailing list, I cannot believe you just distilled what occurred this
past Tuesday to shit happens.

2001-09-14 Thread Hans N.

I have an ISP I have to pay for. One of their major centers, which happens
to be the one that affects me, is/was a quarter mile away from the world
trade center. Now my connection sucks. I'm trying to dial up for the 50th
time hoping I can go online and get my e-mail. *In a whiny cry-baby prickish
voice that some people remember as some jerky from work they'd like to kick
the crap out of* Why don't they hurry up and toss those dead bodies away.
They're on my cables for my ISP, waaah waaah. I had to delete 150+ e-mails
because other people give a shit.

*end prickish voice*
My dad works on back up power systems. He couldn't call his client (Morgan
Stanley Dean Witter) that Tuesday morning because he lost the number. Not a
big deal, so he head off to the client's office. Half way there he hears
that the building the client's office is in just got hit by an airliner and
so did the building next to it. My dad was on the way to the World Trade
Center. He was going there to relieve/assist two of his friends from his
company. One of them hasn't been found. So the next time you go to school,
or work if you're mature enough, take a look at a good friend and pretend
he's dead and some asshole like you is whining about deleting mail while
your friend's dead carcass hasn't even been found yet. Go cry to your mommy
for having to delete e-mail and then yell at her for not teaching you how to
grow up. There's nothing to laugh at about Karma . . . what goes around will
eventually and definitely come around . . . Enjoy your day

Hans N.

PS - This e-mail wont be leaving my outbox until tomorrow, maybe deleting
e-mail will make it go out sooner? Or was it crying about it that makes it
go out faster?

I will agree on the fact that some families will not be complete again
and that Linux will still be there but...

In the circle of life all life has a lifespan. In this case those people
on the planes was their time. No matter how bad it is, shit happens and
we will just have to live with it.

In my country whenever I drive my car and arrive at a stop street I am
unsure whether I will make it to tomorrow as most of the car hijackings
leave the original driver dead. When I go and have coffee or drink at a
local pub I realize that it could be my last as who knows if a car bomb
is going to go off when I walk out.

As I said, shit happens and we just have to live each day to the best of
our current ability.

you know what, you're right.  Fuck the 6000 people who will fill the extra 
bodybags Mayor Guiliani (sp) asked for, let's all deal with your limited 
e-mail space problem.

TELL ABC, NBC, CNN, CBS, TBS AND EVERY OTHER BROADCASTER
COVERING THE STORY TO STOP.  THIS GUY PROBABLY WANTED TO
SEE A GAME LAST NIGHT AND HE'S ONLY GOT LIMITED TIME FOR THE 
TV.  HELL, LET'S STOP DIGGING OUT BODIES AND SHIPPING OFF APPENDAGES
WE'VE GOT A REAL PROBLEM HERE - THIS GUY HAS TO DELETE 150+
E-MAILS AND HE'S ONLY GOT LIMITED SPACE.

how about you read the friggin' MUO or MUF archives.   or, here's a thought.
GET A JOB  maybe then you can afford an ISP who'll give you a reasonable cap 
on e-mail.  

see this is the kind of selfish, penny-annie bullshit attitude that got us 
here in the first place.  it's always about us.  we don't want to be 
inconvienced by airport restrictions, by war, or by e-mail.  i say that it's 
time to snatch our collective head out of our ass, take back the olive branch 
we always want to hold out and give the world the finger as we do some major
ass-kicking.

hey.. i think it's absolutely right to discuss the terrorist attack..
but how about opening a different mailing list for that issue or others not 
regarding linux?
i'm shocked by it too, and the things said about this in this list
are (mostly) well said, make sense and i understand the feeligs..
i don't want anyone to think it does not concern me, but it could
be a better idea to do this somewhere else..

bye.

2001-09-13 Thread John Clegg

I've been talking about it at length - in a suitable place. Could all the
rest of you go somewhere suitable as well please?

Now, can somebody point me at a place where I can get simple
words-of-one-syllable advice for setting up Samba so that I can access
shares on an NT machine from my KDE/Gnome or whatever desktop please.

I have a DVD ROM drive in the NT machine - is it possible to configure
things so that I can load Linux software on a DVD by reading the NT DVD
drive over the network?

John
